Musical Birds of Nevada

Autor George Griffith
en Limba Engleză Paperback
This lighthearted book is about enjoying music and why, when and how birds sing, migrate, make love and have the earliest music skills. It is a story of our fellow creatures such as the Yellow-rumped Warbler and the Snowbird found in the woodlands, wetlands and backyards of Nevada. This little volume, enhanced by cartoons will inform and amuse the naturalist and music lover. What makes this so delightful is its quaint humor combining music, birds and Nevada, a subject readily intelligible to even those unfamiliar with musical birds of the silver state.

Notă biografică

George Griffith (1857-1906), full name George Chetwynd Griffith-Jones, was a prolific British science fiction writer and noted explorer who wrote during the late Victorian and Edwardian age. Many of his visionary tales appeared in magazines such as Pearson's Magazine and Pearson's Weekly before being published as novels. Griffith was extremely popular in the United Kingdom, though he failed to find similar acclaim in the United States, in part due to his utopian socialist views. A journalist, rather than scientist, by background, what his stories lack in scientific rigour and literary grace they make up for in sheer exuberance of execution. "To-night that spark was to be shaken from the torch of Revolution, and to-morrow the first of the mines would explode...the armies of Europe would fight their way through the greatest war that the world had ever seen." - from Griffith's most famous novel The Angel of the Revolution.
